Belize City, 1 December 2014 (CRFM): Japan’s fisheries cooperation with CARICOM has spanned two decades. Following several country seminars held over the past few weeks, the celebration of this milestone—20 years of friendship and cooperation in fisheries—will climax this week, when senior fisheries experts of Member States of the Caribbean Regional Fisheries Mechanism (CRFM) and Japan meet in Trinidad and Tobago.
On that occasion, the development allies will reflect on the achievements of their partnership, as well as Japan-funded fisheries projects executed to date in the region.
The regional fisheries experts will also discuss and identify future interventions that could be submitted to Japan for funding consideration, especially in light of the Caribbean Community Common Fisheries Policy and the CARICOM Strategic Plan, both recently adopted for the region.
The celebratory review of CARICOM’s fisheries cooperation with Japan will form part of an upcoming regional fisheries workshop which opens on Thursday, 4 December 2014 at the Hilton Hotel in Port of Spain, Trinidad and To

Seemungal to bring 'sanity' to Parliament

Pressed further, on his thoughts on "restoring sanity," he said: "It is not that it totally didn't exist.

I am trying to revive it again. I am showing interest. I believe we can teach the young ones something tangible in life." Seemungal said t
